Partitioning behaviour of selected antibiotics in organic solvents
description The commercial production of antibiotics today uses the solvent extraction method in the extraction of antibiotics. Selection of solvent in any solvent extraction process is crucial due to technical and economic reasons. In order to get better understanding on the effect of solvent on the partitioning behaviour antibiotics, selected antibiotics such as kitasamycin, penicillin G, rifampicin and teicoplanin from aqueous buffer solution were studied using various groups of organic solvents such as alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, aliphatic hydrocarbons, kerosene and paraffin, as well as with addition of various extractants in kerosene system in order to enhance solute partitioning. The effects of solvent polarity, pH, antibiotic types and extractant addition on the partitioning behaviour of antibiotics were investigated. The polarity of solvents, in general, increases with an increase in solubility parameter and dielectric constant; and with a decrease in log P.
